Favorite movie

Hmm. Kind of a tie between the Return of the Living Dead, the Matrix trilogy and Hellraiser.
Hmm, depends on my mood. I have a rather.....er eclectic collection of movies and I have a rather flitty attention span. So my "favorite" isn't favorite so much as it is "go to" movies, depending on what I want to watch. Some adult-ish entertainment would be Pulp Fiction, Jurassic Park, Indiana Jones Trilogy, Schindler's List, To Kill A Mockingbird, Trainspotting, Goodfellas, Godfather or Pan's Labyrinth.
For kids' movies I'd go with Lion King, Secret Of Nimh, Hugo, Who Framed Roger Rabbit or The Iron Giant.
10 Things I Hate About You, Mean Girls, Bend it Like Beckham, Clueless, Romeo + Juliette (I know the movie is a pretty clunky hodge podge, but dammit! It's pretty looking Shakespeare with Decaprio!!) and Legally Blonde if I'm in the mood for kitchy girly sort of guilty pleasure 90ish nostalgia.
Oh and the Lord of the Rings Trilogy because..........childhood.

Now that's not an easy one to chose fromIt's toss up between Terminator 2 & Aliens.
I can't decide between "2001 a Space Odissey" and "the Silence of the Lambs".

What's "XD"?
If your question relates to the movie, which I think it probably does, it was a 3 hour epic on Gandhi's life made in the 1970's. It's an extremely well done movie, true to history, and what I learned from that movie and the numerous books that I subsequently read on Gandhi's life, changed my life in so many ways.

Sorry I was being sarcastic, that's what the XD meant. I can certainly see, however, how Mahatma Gandhi's life and work would cause a profound change in someone's life.
Twilight Hue
Twilight, not bright nor dark, good nor bad.
So many favorites.
Likely my top one's....
Billy Jack
Circle of Iron
Little Buddha
Phantasm (the original)

Delicatessan.
Watership Down.
Kontroll.
The Hunt starring Mads Mikkelsen.
Last of the Mohicans, at the least for the soundtrack.
Beckett.
Blade Runner.
12 Angry Men.
I Saw the Devil.
Infernal Affairs.....I still find "The Departed" to be nothing more than a second hand attempt as well as a failed attempt.
Star Trek VI.
The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari.
Seventh Seal.
Seven Samurai.
The Lord of the Rings trilogy by Peter Jackson.
That's a list covering various genres of my favorites among multiple genres.
Out of those I think "The Hunt" followed by another Mads Mikkelsen film "Adam's Apples" were two of the most outstanding films I have watched after "Kotroll" in the last twelve years.
Except, perhaps, "I Saw the Devil". The original "Oldboy" star acting as a depraved serial killer who is continually tortured by a vengeful secret agent......let's just say that Korean crime as well as comedy cinema for the last two decades along with the films of the new Hannibal everyone knows today are among my favorites of late.
